2023 GMC Canyon Overview
Midsize pickups have gained popularity over the years, offering a blend of performance, utility, and comfort. The 2023 GMC Canyon is a popular choice among customers at the Glenwood Chevrolet dealer. They appreciate this truck’s versatility, attractive styling, outstanding ride quality, and powerful engine.
According to the Glenwood Chevrolet dealership, the GMC Canyon receives a significant revamp for 2023. The most notable addition is the AT4X trim, which takes the Canyon’s off-roading prowess to new heights. The AT4X features 33-inch mud-terrain tires and a 3.0-inch lift, providing an impressive 10.7 inches of ground clearance. All Canyon trim levels get a height boost, with the Elevation featuring a 2.0-inch lift. The Edition 1 package further augments the Canyon’s off-road capabilities, adding light bars, extra bumpers, a winch, cameras, and 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels. The interior also gets a complete redesign to enhance the driving experience.
Motor Trend offered these words of praise for the 2023 GMC Canyon: “Much of what there is to like about the Chevrolet Colorado—a two-time MotorTrend Truck of the Year winner—applies to the GMC Canyon, as well. Comfortable, capable, and enjoyable to drive, the Canyon is one of our favorite midsize trucks.”
The 2023 GMC Canyon is available in four trim levels, listed as Elevation, AT4, Denali, and AT4X. A standard turbocharged 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine powers the Canyon, generating 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. The Elevation gets standard rear-wheel drive and available four-wheel drive. The other models come with four-wheel drive.
Fuel economy for the 2023 GMC Canyon is rated at up to 18 mpg in the city and 23 mpg on the highway for the base Elevation trim with rear-wheel drive.*
Towing capacity for the 2023 GMC Canyon depends on the trim level selected. The Elevation, AT4, and Denali trims offer a towing capacity of 7,700 pounds. In contrast, the AT4X gets a slightly reduced capacity of 6,000 pounds, decreasing to 5,500 pounds with the Edition 1 package.
The 2023 GMC Canyon gets several technology enhancements. The Elevation and AT4 models are equipped with an 8.0-inch digital gauge cluster, which has been moved behind the steering wheel for convenience. The gear shifter is now located closer to the passenger side, making room for the drive-mode selector. Additionally, the cupholders have been repositioned to a deeper cubby for improved accessibility.
The Canyon’s infotainment system features a user-friendly touchscreen interface, complete with standard features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The Denali and AT4X trims boast a larger 11.0-inch display. The screen is easy to use, featuring rubberized knobs for volume and tuning adjustments and additional hard buttons for fast operation. SLE and higher rims are equipped with an 8.0-inch touchscreen and a 4G LTE mobile hotspot. A wireless charging pad is exclusive to the Denali trim, which also comes with a Bose premium stereo system.
